โฆ Synopsis
The behaviour of potassium-graphite intercalation compounds (GIC) and directly prepared potassium-coal adducts (PCA) was studied during their oxidation by oxygen. The reactions were carried out in dry state or after dispersion in a solvating medium. The reaction rate in THF was found to be higher. E.s.r. data showed that the KO, produced in the oxidation process was in the form of a complex in the interlayer space of graphite or inserted between the parallel layers of condensed aromatic nuclei in the case of coal adducts. This state of KO, explains the fact that its e.s.r. signal was registered at room temperature. This work revealed an approach for the mild oxidation of PCA with a view to structural investigation of solubilized coal.

The paper draws ancntion to the importance of the part played by peroxidic bodies or active oxygen in the weathering of coal; comparative investigations have been made with both coal and carbon, which are shown to behave similarly. The initial reaction appears to involve chemisorption, which, in th
The low-temperature oxidation of coal has been investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-i.r.). Samples were oxidized at 140 and 60ยฐC for intervals of a few hours to days. These FT-i.r. results were correlated to changes in the thermoplastic properties of the coal measured by a Gie
